65. JoBS: Should Patrick Ewing Be A Number One Option?
Nelson s question is a serious challenge to patrick ewing s stature as a This important characteristic of basketball is that the performances of the
http://www.rawbw.com/~deano/articles/ewing.html
Should Patrick Ewing Be A Number One Option?
18 March, 1996
Don Nelson, upon his leaving the New York Knicks, stated that Patrick Ewing should not be a number one offensive option if the Knicks are to compete to be champions. For a coach to say something like this is rare because loyalty is important in the league. Usually, a statement like this comes out of feeling betrayed, which Nelly may have been. However, there is also reason to think that Nelson said it out of an honest personal belief. Could it be true that Ewing should no longer be the first option for a winning team? First of all, we should define what a number one offensive option should do. Most first options in an offense are players who can score with a high probability. This means, using terminology of JoBS , that they have a high floor percentage, good enough to make an entire offense good perhaps better than average. This consists of two questions then. First, is Ewing's individual offense good? Second, is the Knicks' overall offense good because his offense is good? The answer to both these questions is no. No, Ewing's offense is not "good" right now. His floor percentage is just 0.502 this year and his offensive rating is just 98.5 (within the context of an average offense). No, the Knicks' team offense is not good either, with an offensive rating of 104.3, as of 3/10, with the league average at about 105.9. A quick and dirty answer like this shouldn't quite satisfy you. It doesn't satisfy me.

Basketball Great Michael Jordan Fired by Washington Wizard’s Owners Abe Pollin and Ted Leonsis
According to Dallas Mavericks owner, Mark Cuban, “you hate to say it, but I think MJ got used. Now, where are the Wizards? Both parties lose in all of this. Michael gets tainted, and the Wizards lose their No. 1 draw.” During his time at the Wizards, they became the most popular road draw and made $30 million, selling out every game. Michael Jordan, while playing for the Chicago Bulls in the ‘90s, led them to six NBA championship titles.
BET Founder Bob Johnson Wants Michael Jordan to Join Charlotte North Carolina’s New NBA Team
5-8-03. Bob Johnson, founder of Black Entertainment Television, has asked basketball legend, Michael Jordan to join his Charlotte expansion franchise. The two friends met at a Chicago Bulls game twelve years ago. According to Johnson, who purchased the yet-to-be-named team for $300 million, “absolutely I want him to be involved. He can play any role he wants to play, frankly.” Jordan is being shopped around by his representatives to other franchises, including the Chicago Bulls, whom he played for 13 years and the Atlanta Hawks, who are for sale.

Georgetown Basketball: August 2002 News Archive Freshman Guard Eligible Freshman guard Ashanti Cook will play for Georgetown this fall, according to ESPN.com and campus reports. Cook, who originally signed with New Mexico prior to a coaching change, could be required to sit a year as a penalty. Andy Katz's daily column at ESPN.com (updated daily and not archived) for Tuesday read, in part, "The NLI hasn't forced any player who switched schools this spring or summer to sit out the one-year penalty for breaking the NLI if they get cooperation from the school that originally signed them.... PG Ashanti Cook is eligible at Georgetown, after signing with New Mexico." Cook's eligibility was confirmed by Georgetown Thursday. Further information follows in links to The HOYA and the Georgetown Voice In the Voice article, Coach Esherick also discussed senior Victor Samnick, who is still working on injuries suffered last season. "He's not working out in the same way or as long as the other players," said Esherick. "He swims a lot for conditioning. Victor is very interested in staying in top physical condition, and he'll hit the ground running as soon as he's given complete medical clearance."

Georgetown Basketball: September 2002 News Archive RPI Analysis With two weeks to go until the opening of practice, all Division I schools have finalized their schedules. Some brief statistics to report: Four of Georgetown's 2002-03 opponents finished in the top 50 of the Ratings Performance Index (RPI) last season, the most of any Big East school according to a review of 2002-03 Big East schedules vs. end of season RPI totals. As a whole, however, its mean RPI for out of conference games hasn't changed much from last season's mark. The 2001-02 out of conference (OOC) schedule posted an average RPI of 179.1 for its Division I opponents. This year's list shows an improvement to only 171.3. While Duke (RPI=4) is a higher ranked opponent than Georgia (RPI=18), the schedule's reliance on teams ranked below 200 keeps the overall average at a comparable level from last year.

Luck of the Draw
By DAVE ANDERSON
May 12, 1985 NEW YORK-Until today, Dave DeBusschere had never won anything in a drawing. "At least nothing big," he would recall. "I think I got a set of club head covers at a golf tournament once, that's all."
And when he arrived at the Starlight Room of the Waldorf Astoria he was presented with a Knick button that had a blue-dyed rabbit's foot attached to it, but he shrugged and handed it to an onlooker. At the National Basketball Association Draft Lottery that would determine Patrick Ewing's future, if not his own future, Dave DeBusschere preferred to depend on the power of a small prayer he had said at the 9:15 Mass this morning at St. Joseph's Church, not far from his Garden City, L.I., home.
"I said some prayers, like I always do," the Knicks' head of basketball operations was saying now about five hours later, "and then I thought, I'll be a little selfish and ask for Patrick Ewing in the lottery."
Dave DeBusschere had finally won something big-7 feet big. His prayer had been answered. So had the prayers of Knick fans everywhere, some of whom had booed Patrick Ewing when he appeared at Madison Square Garden with the Georgetown team in recent years in Big East Conference games. But yesterday God was a Knick fan. And now Patrick Ewing will be cheered at the Garden as few basketball players ever have.
